Abstract

This paper analyzes how the farmers of Bangladesh use modern information and communications technology (ICT) for gathering different agricultural data. Farmers of Bangladesh are being encouraged to use smart devices of information and technology such as smartphones, android phones, laptops, desktops, and electronic television for getting updates on different agricultural products, harvesting, and competitive markets. Information and communication technology includes all the devices with inbuilt human-to-human and device-to-human interaction systems. Thus, information and technology have a direct and indirect impact on rising farmers’ productivity and growth for sustainable development. This study shed light on the understanding of the effect of information and communication technology on the agricultural growth of Bangladesh for sustainable development with the help of a conclusive research design and a secondary method of data collection adopted in this research for understanding the importance of using information and technology in smart agriculture.
